In the end

(It

starts with)
One thing / I don’t know why
It doesn’t even matter how hard you try
Keep that in mind / I designed

this rhyme
To explain in due time
All I know
time is a valuable thing
Watch it fly by as the pendulum

swings
Watch it count down to the end of the day
The clock ticks life away
It’s so unreal
Didn’t look out

below
Watch the time go right out the window
Trying to hold on / but didn’t even know
Wasted it all just

to
Watch you go
I kept everything inside and even though I tried / it all fell apart
What it meant to me / will

eventually / be a memory / of a time when I tried
so hard
And got so far
But in the end
It doesn't even

matter
I had to fall
To lose it all
But in the end
It doesn't even matter
One thing / I don’t know

why
It doesn’t even matter how hard you try
Keep that in mind / I designed this rhyme
To remind myself how
I

tried so hard
In spite of the way you were mocking me
Acting like I was part of your property
Remembering all the

times you fought with me
I’m surprised it got so (far)
Things aren’t the way they were before
You wouldn’t even

recognize me anymore
Not that you knew me back then
But it all comes back to me
In the end
You kept everything

inside and even though I tried / it all fell apart
What it meant to me / will eventually / be a memory / of a time when

I
I tried so hard
And got so far
But in the end
It doesn’t even matter
I had to fall
To lose it

all
But in the end
It doesn’t even matter
I've put my trust in you
Pushed as far as I can go
For all

this
There’s only one thing you should know
I've put my trust in you
Pushed as far as I can go
For all

this
There’s only one thing you should know
I tried so hard
And got so far
But in the end
It doesn’t even

matter
I had to fall
To lose it all
But in the end
It doesn’t even matter
